The East Ayrshire Digital Access Network (EA DAN) is made up of over 100 individuals representing local and national organisations that work together to close the digital and data divide in East Ayrshire by providing access to an appropriate device, connectivity, and training and support to improve digital skills.
The EA DAN was founded to create equal access to the internet and technology to allow people to effectively participate in social and economic activities.
